You guys are killin' me, I was looking for a decent two bay charger for 15 bucks or so and now you've got me looking at OPUS and GYRFALCON 4 bay smarty pants chargers at $30-40. One thing I'm not gonna do is buy a charger that only puts out 500ma, when my Pico's can charge in the mod at 1A. (and don't anyone dare warn this electrical engineer I should never charge a battery in the mod as I have been doing just that with istick built in's and other 18650 mods for 3 years)
The reason I'm considering picking up one of the two i mentioned is they charge all battery types and I've got some NiMh and Nicads around as well, another Pico coming, and gonna order some LG HG2 3000 mah bats. I've done a lot of reviewing of tests of both these chargers and it looks like a choice between a noisy fan but runs cool and runs hot when charging 4 NiMh at an amp.
My charging safety method - put charger or mod where it won't burn the host down should it catch fire and don't charge overnight. Works so far, lol
Uptate: After further review, I am favoring the Lii-500, will do what I need, runs cooler than the GYRFALCON 4 but not as cool as the OPUS but no fan
